Thanks, look forward to mixing.hello. Welcome. another Westralian in the mix.
Favourite line up - my newest cream TOBS peppermint, Proraso green post shave cream + a/s, semogue 830, Merkur 34c. Being a Scot I have issues with climate in WA so love the menthol. My other razors are Muhle R41 and Merkur Futur (shiney gold) which I use once a week. I find the Lucky Tiger tonic works well after the R41 has raked my face to shreds.
It's the current version. First time I used it I realised what the term 'aggressive' meant. That's compared to my Merkur 34c which I use most days. 2nd & 3rd time with absolutely no pressure I realised what the term 'efficient' meant. Now I look forward to using it.That sounds like a pretty nice kit you have there!
The Lucky Tiger is a miracle worker - one of my 'go to' post shave products when my face needs some 'healing'
Is your R41 a current version or the infamous 2011?
